Package: python3-seaborn
Version: 0.8.0-1
Severity: normal
NMU version 0.8.0-1.1 add a Depends: python3-tk, however this dependency
shouldn't be there.
I fought hard to remove it in the first place.
If you follow the bug report in #896401 and #896003, the dependency is
triggered when using matplotlib.
matplotlib *already* recommends python3-tk.
That's already correct and enough.
matplotlib doesn't *depend* on it because the tk backend is *not*
required for matplotlib to work. matplotlib can work with agg, Qt or
cairo.
The python3-tk dependency is pulling extra useless dependencies on
headless systems.
Please remove the extra dependency.
Thanks
